The Detective Force at Chicago Have
Their Eyes ON Every Movement.
CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-The central detective
force composed of thirty patrolmen in citi-
zens' clothes has been reinforced by six e1-
pert officers. This increase results from the
apprehension of the general public concern
ing the coming date of the anarchists exeou-
ton and is merely one of the precautionary
measures taken by the police to insure peace
and order. At each of the stations through
out the city number of officers are detailed
to the sole duty of maintaining surveillance
of the movements of suspected anarchists in
their respective districts. AS the critical
date approaches and apprehensions increase
the vigilance of the police is redoubled and
not Verein, Bund, Gesellschaft, or any 30
ciety of dubious title or secret motives can
hold a session without its quota of police
agents in attendance. The heads of the de-
partments claim to be steadily informed of
the comings and goings, plans and projects

did not. The gentlemen in the blue suits

were SO scattered that they did not count and
Richardson's three-bagger and Thompson's
single both came in the same inning and be-
tween them two men got bases on errors, so
there were three runs for Detroit in one

that he could not accept nomination which
implied discrimination against Mr.. Mar

ticket as judge of the criminal court, for
which Office he has already been nominated
by the Democrats.
The Republicans of this county tonight
nominated ticket including Delaney Mic
